We're listing to a Norwegian bluegrass song about the tragedy of breaking up and having no one to watch season four of the Wire with anymore.
@Ormur Norwegian bluegrass?!?!
@auntiekiki Apparently that's a big thing in the Norwegian folk scene.
@Ormur I never would've guessed that bluegrass would appeal anywhere outside the US (and I say that as someone who enjoys the genre). Does it sound similar to native Norwegian folk music?
@auntiekiki I'm not an expert but what I've heard sounds more like Irish folk, lots of fiddling.
I think the song about breaking up wasn't really bluegrass either but there are bluegrass bands an influences on the scene I've been told.
@Ormur With the fiddle connection, it makes sense that there'd be a possibility of influences.
